Can someone please fix this new iCal?

Jesus friggin Christ. At first I thought it was me. Like maybe I was suffering from early Alzheimer's or something. I kept missing appointments. Turns out iCal was moving things around on me. Ja'Red would book me something on a Tuesday, and iCal would move it to Thursday, so I'd miss it. Turns out it's something in Leopard. Or in iCal. Not sure. To everyone else who's also missing appointments, well, think of it as a chance to spend some quality time with yourself. Do some yoga or something. Take some deep breaths. We're working on it. For now, do what I do, and just keep your appointments on paper. Totally works.

iCal? it can keep appointments? I'm still on Tiger, so I guess I wouldn't be affected. But I only use iCal to tell me what the when the date will be, like to tell me the 8th will be saturday.

Scoble Tiwtter Update: I use Outlook. But still no one wants to meet with me. Unless I bring a camera.

Hey, did this blog get hacked again or something?? iCal is perfect. Leopard is perfect. There are no problems. None. Now say that again to yourself until you are in awe of your products FSJ. Look in a mirror if you have to. Jesus friggin christ, what kind of fake CEO are you?

no issues with iCal what so ever. Works great and I have multiple schedules going in multiple time zones all stored perfectly. (yes I am important)


It's almost like the guy who found out the reason behind his iPhone's ring-sound gone missing :-)

Let's be honest, it was designed to do that.

At least the new iCal icon doesn't tell me it's July 17 every day of the year.

Geez and I was going insane!! So I'm not the only one!!
And it's not just iCal. Stored a new contact yesterday on the ipod touch. Synced last night. Contact GONE!

It's iCal + Leopard + dot mac. Not good. Definitely some kinks to work out. Get on it FSJ, before Leopard further gets a bad rap.

Speaking of dot mac, how about that Windows Live, aye? Finally, something that doesn't suck coming from Redmond.

Hopefully, this will light a fire in your pants to make dot mac all that it could (should) be.

Peace Out Cub Scount.

Isn't it wonderful how nearly everything about Leopard has something a little bit wrong with it?

It really could be the beginning of the end. (Hire more programmers! And get someone as good as Avi Tevanian back on the team!)

Syncing of iCal tasks already didn't work *at all* under Tiger, and now Leopard plays fresh fresh forms of hob with them. Basically, .Mac is a disillusioning experience: its purpose seems to be to remind us that Apple can screw up and make you crazy with frustration, too.

It's your .Mac sync that's f-ing it up.

iCal 3 it just works... differently than iCal 2. In iCal 2 my birthday was one day now it is two. Delete something in that entourage sync calendar iCal 3 puts it back for you. I meet with the same person at the same time sometimes up to 4 instances wait I thought I could only do that with sprint speed.

iCal keeps changing the times of my events.. not the days. I change it back and iCal changes it again. Maybe it is because I travel and change time zones???
